A Benwood Man Run Over by an Engine
and Terribly Injured.

A Benwood Man Run Over by an Engine
and Terribly Injured.
About eight o'clock last night n terrible
accident occurred at the Wheeling Com
pany's Steel Plant, in Benwood, in which q
boy named William Higgins received iniu-
ries which will probably result in hisdeath.
At the time mentioned the youth was rid
ing on one of the small engines employed
about the works in hauling cinders, stand
ing on the bumper. He attempted to
Jump of, when his foot slipped and he fell
directly in front of the engine. His brother
was acting rs engineer, and seeing the i'm
minent danger in which William had been
placed, he used every exertion in his power
to stop the engine in order to prevent its
Running over the unfortunate youth, but
he was unable to do SO. The wheels
passed over him, and then the machine
came TO a stop directly on top of the pros
trate body of the boy. All efforts to ex-
tricate him III the ordinary manner Iaileu,
and the engine had to be pried off of him
before the body could be moved.
The unfortunate youth was removed to
his home in the central portion of the
town, where Drs. Ford and Eskey were
summoned, and they did all in their
power for the sufferer. They found that
his head had been terribly mashed, the
bone being fractured at several points, and
in addition there was Il horrible cash in his
throat. The physicians are inclined to
think the wounds are fatal, but there is a
fighting chance for the boys life.
Young Higgins was about fifteen years
of age, and lived with his mother. The
family are in fairly good circumstances
The accident created a good deal of excite
ment at the time, and there were a num-
Der of wild rumors atoat.

FOR b JUDGE.

No one had been definitely settled upon
for this place on tins ticket but when the
name Of Ross j. Alexander was presented
by Pultney township, there arose q big
hearty cheer and under the suspension Of
rules that gentleman was nominated for
Probate Judge.
There were loud and repeated calls
for Mr.. Alexander as soon as his nOmina-
ton was assured, but he was not in the
hall. The Chair appointed a committee of
three to search for him and soon Mr.. Alex
ander was escorted to the stage, where he
made a short but telling speech.
FOB PROSECUTING ATTORNEY.
As Mr.. Newell Kenuon has faithfully
filled the office Of Prosecuting Attorney
for n term it was almost an assured fact
that he would be ~renominated, and the
delegates TO a man were in favor OF placing
him on the ticket for another race, which
was done. Mr.. Kennon was compelled to
make a short speech after his re-nomina-
ton, and he did it gracefully, the band
~seconding his efforts, when he had conclu-
ded, by playing Marching Through Geor-
gia.n
